Josh Pyke – Memories & Dust Lyrics 17 years ago
clare 123000 is very close.

The line "I found no sense or gain to bear the cost" reminds me very much of the position of Ivan Karamazov in Dostoyevskay's "Brother's Karamazov."

superfantastisch has departed far away from the author's meaning. This is not about faith at all or having faith. In fact, he says right out that he does not share the path of those who have "faith in mysterious ways."

It is about having hope, or even just wanting hope, despite having no faith, something quite different.

Pyke wants the impossilbe: we'll never know how much time there is, and we doesn't really need to. But believing there's time is wise.

Beautiful song.

Rufus Wainwright – Do I Disappoint You? Lyrics 17 years ago
I think that in this song the scene is the tension between a celebrity (Rufus) and a real beauty who the celebrity is interested in.

In this case, the beauty is a muscled, macho, cigar-smoking stud who floors Rufus.

The stud shows interest in Rufus, since he's a celebrity, but Rufus is wracked with insecurity and doubt by the situation.
